"The CDP backup feature is very nice, as it allows you to take backups at high frequencies and with application consistency."
"The intuitive interface allows you to set up and perform backups and restores easily."
"The most valuable feature of Altaro VM Backup is its ability to backup and restore various types of data, including Active Directory, application servers, and SQL Server databases."

"The cloud backup and VMware support (now available in the latest releases), could do with some improvement."

"The application could include a feature to install a set size of data, such as the ability to store a single application with all its registry information for easy transfer."
"It would be nice to be able to recover the items to their original location."
"Replication is not fast, the GUI could be more user-friendly, and technical support is lacking in Iran."
"Backup speed and comparisons between versions used to be slow on big VMs but that was improved greatly later on."
"Migrating the physical through a backup and restore to a virtual environment would be very helpful."
"The way the filtering goes, if you filter on your view, there is no indication that you have made a selection."
"I would like to see the pieces that they have put in the web only to be put into the thick client sitting on the desktop client."
"Make sure you check your backups on a regular basis. Backups do get missed with this tool, for whatever reason."
